The Little Sweet Cutie always think that he is a stand-in - CH 10
Mu Qingting nodded slightly when he heard Lin Ran’s voice.
“Yes, that’s right, I know your Gege. I’m an alumnus (schoolmate) with him.” Mu Qingting opened his suitcase, took out a pile of candies and chocolates from it, handing them to Lin Ran, “Look, I bought you something delicious.”
Although Song Zhi Xu had said that Lin Ran was twenty years old, Mu Qingting always felt that he was just like a child, so when he came back, he had specially brought candies and chocolates from abroad as a first time meeting gift.
Sure enough, when he saw the chocolates and candies, Lin Ran’s eyes lit up and he subconsciously wanted to take them, but he didn’t dare to, so he still looked at Song Zhi Xu first.
Song Zhi Xu thought and nodded, “He is my friend, you don’t need to be afraid of him. Just eat it, if you want!”
Only then did Lin Ran carefully take a chocolate, open the package and put it in his mouth.
The thick chocolate taste spread out and melted in his mouth, Lin Ran’s eyes shone brightly as he nodded and said in a low voice that it was delicious.
Then he took another one from Mu Qingting and opened it for Song Zhi Xu.
Song Zhi Xu didn’t eat it, he didn’t really like sweet foods.
Lin Ran had to eat it himself again.
“Ran Ran ah, there’s still a lot here. Take it to the sofa and eat it!” Mu Qingting handed it all to Lin Ran who obediently took it and brought it to the sofa.
Mu Qingting closed the suitcase and handed it to Song Zhi Xu. Mu Qingting followed suit and sat next to Lin Ran.
Song Zhi Xu took Mu Qingting’s suitcase upstairs and put it in the room where he would occasionally stay in when he came over. When he came back downstairs, Mu Qingting was holding the chocolates and handing them to Lin Ran one by one as he got close to him. He was looking at his face, wondering what he was thinking about.

Mu Qingting had been thinking about something and only when Song Zhi Xu reminded him did he notice, he hurriedly took back the chocolate he was handing over.
He looked at Lin Ran and asked Song Zhi Xu in a small voice with some doubts.
“He… obviously can’t even eat anymore, won’t he refuse?”
“He never says no to food.” Song Zhi Xu said.
The person who was able to cry and at the same time stuff the food into his mouth, how could he refuse food offered to him?
“This …This is not normal ah!” Mu Qingting is a doctor. He had seen from the video that day that Lin Ran was not normal. Now, he was even more certain.
This is simply not the intelligence of a twenty year old youngster.
Lin Ran’s mouth was stuffed with too much food and both cheeks were bulging like little squirrels that had hidden food, so there was no way for him to swallow it.
When he saw Song Zhi Xu, he tried to smile at him, but the slightest movement of his lips caused his cheeks to ache and his eyes turned red uncomfortably.
Song Zhi Xu glanced coldly at Mu Qingting next to him. He then sat down next to Lin Ran, put the dustbin in front of him and said, “Spit it out.”
Both of Lin Ran’s cheeks were hurting but he couldn’t let the chocolate in his mouth go to waste, so he shook his head and didn’t want to spit it out.
Song Zhi Xu didn’t say much to him, with one hand cupping his chin and the other poking his cheeks, Lin Ran opened his mouth subconsciously and spat out all the chocolate inside.
Because Mu Qingting handed it to him too quickly, he didn’t even have time to bite it, and the square shaped of chocolate, one by one shoved into his mouth with sharp edges.
Only after he spat it out did Lin Ran feel better and rubbed his cheeks with his hands. He looked at the chocolate in the bin with pity.
If the chocolate hadn’t been covered with his saliva and fallen into the garbage bin, he really wanted to pick it up. It was the first time he had eaten something so delicious.
“Ran Ran, there’s more here. I won’t…you take it and eat it yourself. There’s still candy in there.” Mu Qingting looked at his reluctant gaze and handed the rest to him again.
Lin Ran didn’t dare to take it this time, pulling Song Zhi Xu’s sleeve and rubbing it, carefully looking at Song Zhi Xu’s gloomy face.
He admitted his mistake in a small voice, “I’m sorry. Song Zhi Xu please do not be angry, okay?”
Song Zhi Xu had just gone upstairs for a while and Lin Ran was already fed like a little hamster. Just now, Mu Qingting had leaned so close to him yet Lin Ran didn’t reject, which made Song Zhi Xu inexplicably annoyed.
Song Zhi Xu didn’t know what was wrong with him. It was obvious that he had nothing to do with whoever Lin Ran was close to.
After a while, Song Zhi Xu thought it was probably because Lin Ran could be tricked away with a few pieces of candy in the future, so he was a bit not at ease.
“Song Zhixu, are you angry?” Lin Ran waited for quite a while yet Song Zhi Xu ignored him. He lowered his head and pulled Song Zhi Xu’s clothes even tighter.
It was only because he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to eat it in the future so he ate a lot of it. He didn’t mean to make Song Zhi Xu angry.
“No.” Song Zhi Xu came back to his senses, took the chocolates and candies that Mu Qingting brought over to Lin Ran, “You can only have one a day, do you understand?”
Lin Ran looked up at him and nodded vigorously, holding the chocolates in his arms.
Song Zhi Xu turned to him again and said, “In the future, if a stranger gives you candy, don’t take it and don’t eat it, understand?”
Lin Ran looked at Mu Qingting, only knitting his brows and asked him, “Is Song Zhi Xu’s friend, who knows Gege also a stranger?”
“Those you don’t know are certainly considered strangers.”
“Oh is that so.” Lin Ran nodded, “Okay, then that’s a stranger.”
Only then was Song Zhi Xu satisfied.
The corners of Mu Qingting’s lips twitched, did these two people discuss him, all so openly and overboard for him to hear?
Still, it had only been two days, watching the way Song Zhi Xu and Lin Ran were standing side by side and talking together raised suspicions in his heart.
“Zhi Xu, I have something that I want to say to you.”
Mu Qingting stood up and pulled Song Zhi Xu upstairs. Until he reached Song Zhi Xu’s study room, he immediately closed the door and let go of him. He pursed his lips as he looked at Song Zhi Xu seriously.
“Zhi Xu, I know you’ve liked Lin Mu for many years, so are you now treating Lin Ran as Lin Mu’s replacement?”
The two were so familiar with each other that Mu Qingting asked it directly without even the slightest consideration at all.
